Who Should I Start? Isaiah Davis or Trent Pennix

Sunday, August 25, 1:52 PM

New York Jets rookie fifth-round running back Isaiah Davis, who is a jack of all trades in the backfield, is the leading candidate for the RB3 role to open up his first year in the NFL. Davis could also land a job as a kick returner on special teams. Breece Hall will be the team's workhorse starting running back in 2024, with rookie Braelon Allen earning the backup change-of-pace role. The 22-year-old Davis is merely a stash candidate in deep dynasty/keeper fantasy leagues this year. He was a workhorse back in his time at South Dakota State and has enough size and power to be intriguing as an early-down back if he ever sees significant playing time down the road. With Davis looking primed for the RB3 role to begin the year, it means that Israel Abanikanda will open the season as the team's RB4.

Indianapolis Colts running back Trent Pennix (groin) was forced to leave the team's game on Sunday due to a groin injury. The 24-year-old rookie didn't see much work in their preseason debut on Sunday against the Denver Broncos. In his limited snaps, Pennix caught his lone target for seven yards and didn't receive any work on the ground. The severity of the groin injury is unknown at this time, but he'll look to get back on the field this week and compete to stick on the roster a depth option in the backfield.
